It's at least 20 minutes before they do

Bonus points if it landed on a campfire.

In a zombie game the dire wolf really doesn't ma...

Basically, black wolves(Dire Wolves) are like mini-bosses. You should always look for them and never let them see you before you see them.
That is why it is always a good idea not to run forward blindly...

No worries. Was just curious. 😃

I was curious and looked at it but there is no way to input a gamestage so the output wouldn't have anything to do with ingame results.


There are fields for a mystery skill and player level, neither of which have any direct impact on the result.

I’ve been carrying a level 1 pistol with a single clip for emergencies (I’m only in week 2). A dire wolf running in without warning in the night qualified as an emergency. :lunar2019shockedpig: it took the whole clip to bring it down, and it was quite scary.

Banana rocket jumping. Just to keep people guessing where to find bananas.


Even if you say "Romero zombies" then those zombies are clever enough to ride a horse or fire a gun. All seen in Romero movies...

And then the screen fades to black as they suffocate....aha, oxygen tank to the rescue....land shark then swallows them whole.

Inside vs outside is a very vague concept in a voxel world made out of all kinds of odd shapes. Not easy to determine and not fast.

Not easy. Chunks are many pieces of data distributed across different arrays in a type of compression and it is not simple. Then you have tons of code that says give me the block at xyz or set the block and now it is multiple blocks? Some hybrid? To be sane, it would need to remain a primary block at a location, but possibly a secondary block could be added for visuals, but I would not be doing separate heath and collision resolving for it or it just gets more complicated and slower.

I'm already done with those performance changes.


gfx st x are streaming commands and forceload is a Unity debug option that just makes streaming textures load, which would not help if a texture was slow because it is in system RAM.


Friday I actually disabled streaming when texture quality is less than Full, since both features are doing a similar reduction in textures and due to what seems to be a Unity bug were not working correctly with each other leading to blurrier streamed textures.


Testers found that some FPS drops were actually biome particles, so today I fixed that:

Fixed Particles in snow and desert cause major FPS drops (balanced sand, smoke and snow particle rates to a reduced max count of 150).
Changed "Water Particles" video quality option to "Particles", which now also decreases world particle count.

Someone literally said they want to be in their bunker and sit out horde night and the beauty of that is: You absolutely can!

Turn off horde nights and you can even play the game during that time and feel all smug about having outsmarted all those zombie fools with your superior game option skills! =P

In Minecraft you can't have everything without ever leaving your house and the attached mine.

What some people like to gloss over is that while the number of recipes has gone down, the number of craftable blocks has gone up more than ever.

There are a bunch of variant blocks that fold out into a lot of things.

He's not wrong. Even a double barrel destroys all the early game zombies.

That's how it's currently working.

With the exception of super early in the game there is always overlap. Any modder who can be arsed knows how to look up the details. 😃

I'm left-handed.

Correct. The right hand has a chainsaw attached.




You guys do realise that this is getting into the territory of weird and hard to enforce rules, right?

There is no need for a solution because there is no problem.
